Wow. That's it. But that's more than double what I'd pay. Cool cab.

Hey John why not just send the guy a note with an offer? The worst thing he can do is say no!  ;)

Crazy kong I've learnt to love,
Being a Nintendo collector I always saw this game as a poor mans donkey kong
But actually once you get round the non animated kong it's actually a very good game.
Played this a lot at retro games party and really enjoyed it.
Maybe because it's a bit easier

I've always felt that I don't want to get involved with boot leg stuff but that one is just cool enough that if I found one I'd at least consider buying it.

Thanks! The kit runs on Galaxian hardware and in my case was installed on SI part 2 conversion bootleg Galaxian. Does that make sense?

The bootleg DK was installed in a SI2 cocktail that was first converted to Galaxian with a special bootleg board they plugs into a SI2 harness and later the bootleg board was converted to a DK bootleg with a kit that was intended for actual Galaxian hardware.


Good thing it was compatible.

The ladders look very confusing,you can't walk through the ladder and onto it. You have to walk right round which is weird

You can only get on and of ladders all the ends not in the middle. It makes the game way more interesting.

More interesting and bazzar. Then again when do games need to be realistic?
